Radial Maximal Function Characterizations of Hardy Spaces on RD-Spaces and Their Applications

Let ${\mathcal X}$ be an RD-space with $\mu({\mathcal X})=\infty$, which means that ${\mathcal X}$ is a space of homogeneous type in the sense of Coifman and Weiss and its measure has the reverse doubling property. In this paper, we characterize the atomic Hardy spaces $H^p_{\rm at}(\{\mathcal X})$ of Coifman and Weiss for $p\in(n/(n+1),1]$ via the radial maximal function, where $n$ is the "dimension" of ${\mathcal X}$, and the range of index $p$ is the best possible. This completely answers the question proposed by Ronald R. Coifman and Guido Weiss in 1977 in this setting, and improves on a deep result of Uchiyama in 1980 on an Ahlfors 1-regular space and a recent result of Loukas Grafakos…

Pointwise characterizations of Besov and Triebel–Lizorkin spaces and quasiconformal mappings

Abstract In this paper, the authors characterize, in terms of pointwise inequalities, the classical Besov spaces B ˙ p , q s and Triebel–Lizorkin spaces F ˙ p , q s for all s ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) and p , q ∈ ( n / ( n + s ) , ∞ ] , both in R n and in the metric measure spaces enjoying the doubling and reverse doubling properties. Applying this characterization, the authors prove that quasiconformal mappings preserve F ˙ n / s , q s on R n for all s ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) and q ∈ ( n / ( n + s ) , ∞ ] . A metric measure space version of the above morphism property is also established.

Isoperimetric inequality via Lipschitz regularity of Cheeger-harmonic functions

Abstract Let ( X , d , μ ) be a complete, locally doubling metric measure space that supports a local weak L 2 -Poincare inequality. We show that optimal gradient estimates for Cheeger-harmonic functions imply local isoperimetric inequalities.

Abstract We study L ∞ -variational problems associated to measurable Finsler structures in Euclidean spaces. We obtain existence and uniqueness results for the absolute minimizers.

A characterization of Hajłasz–Sobolev and Triebel–Lizorkin spaces via grand Littlewood–Paley functions

Abstract In this paper, we establish the equivalence between the Hajlasz–Sobolev spaces or classical Triebel–Lizorkin spaces and a class of grand Triebel–Lizorkin spaces on Euclidean spaces and also on metric spaces that are both doubling and reverse doubling. In particular, when p ∈ ( n / ( n + 1 ) , ∞ ) , we give a new characterization of the Hajlasz–Sobolev spaces M ˙ 1 , p ( R n ) via a grand Littlewood–Paley function.

New Orlicz-Hardy Spaces Associated with Divergence Form Elliptic Operators

Let $L$ be the divergence form elliptic operator with complex bounded measurable coefficients, $\omega$ the positive concave function on $(0,\infty)$ of strictly critical lower type $p_\oz\in (0, 1]$ and $\rho(t)={t^{-1}}/\omega^{-1}(t^{-1})$ for $t\in (0,\infty).$ In this paper, the authors study the Orlicz-Hardy space $H_{\omega,L}({\mathbb R}^n)$ and its dual space $\mathrm{BMO}_{\rho,L^\ast}({\mathbb R}^n)$, where $L^\ast$ denotes the adjoint operator of $L$ in $L^2({\mathbb R}^n)$. Several characterizations of $H_{\omega,L}({\mathbb R}^n)$, including the molecular characterization, the Lusin-area function characterization and the maximal function characterization, are established.
